And oh we are
Counting up the reasons to be shy, she is
Counting out the reasons to try
-General Fiasco, Ever So Shy
Caroline's new roommate brings her to a kegger one weekend.
She's still just a bit raw from her break-up with Matt and all she wants is to spend her Saturday underneath the covers, moaning away her sorrows and broken heart but Kate would have none of it.
She found the darker girl irritating and too nosy for her own good but she meant well and Caroline could see that. So she goes because she's bored and maybe, just maybe she needed the distraction.
The place is loud with music and bodies dancing and people shouting over the music. She nurses a beer and tries to pretend she's anywhere but there.
Kate drags her off at a new arrival and introduces her to the Fantabulous Four.
The blond one quickly introduces himself, all cocky and trying to be suave. She resists throwing her beer at him. The other two weren't so bad, the one with pretty dark eyes and Kate's mechanic boyfriend. But it's the youngest one that got her attention.
He stared up at her sweet smile and blue eyes and she's lost.
"Tyler," He shook her hand, her gasping at the electric sparks that ran through them at the contact.
What the hell?
"Nice to meet you," She says her name out in a breath, feeling lightheaded all of a sudden, She's still lost in pools of blue and the way he was staring at her made her want to be near him, she needed to be near him and she didn't know why.
What was going on?
"Wanna get a beer?" He offered. She was about to tell him, she still had one but when she looked at the bottle, it was empty. Strange.
She looked up in confusion and saw his eyes…glow? Things just kept getting stranger.
But she ignored that nagging voice at the back of her head and agreed. She needed to stop being so paranoid after all.
